Synopsis

Quote: In the ravaged near future, a savage motorcycle gang rules the road. Terrorizing innocent civilians while tearing up the streets, the ruthless gang laughs in the face of a police force hell-bent on stopping them. But they underestimate one officer: Max Rockatansky (Gibson). And when the bikers brutalize Max's best friend and family, they send him into a mad frenzy that leaves him seeking revenge, which is the only thing left in the world for Max to live for.

The second disc is a SD-DVD and contains all the extras that the MGM DVD release had.

It would have been nice to have seen a new documentary and/or audio commentary from other members of the cast, such as Steve Bisley and Hugh Keays-Byrne. Gibson wouldn't have wanted to be involved, as he was an alcoholic during the first couple of Mad Max films.

All we ask is just for a great transfer and impressive audio - and for the poxy thing not to be region-locked.

i just recently went through this trilogy with canada's answer to netflix. i had never seen the first two but saw the third when i was young. anyway i dont know if its one of those movies you had to see during its initial release but i dont get the love the first two have. maybe i've been decentized and much "worse" movies have come along since so whatever impact they originally had dont work as well today.

but all that said....its pretty nice to see a catalogue blu-ray get a decent set of extras so the fans should definately be happy. but whats this about an original australian track? the dvd copy i rented must have had it because everyone sounded very aussie. lol
